- Roadside and safety-critical jobs are prioritised above routine bookings.

- Every car jumpstart finishes with a charging-system reading, so the same fault does not reappear next week.
Response time questions
Q.Do you carry batteries or come back later?
Stock is on the van, covering standard flooded, EFB and AGM in the common sizes, so most jobs complete on the first visit.
Q.Do you cover Boldmere and the B73 area for this?
Yes. Boldmere is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via A38 Bassetts Pole, roughly 1 miles from Sutton Coldfield. We cover it alongside Sutton Coldfield and the surrounding streets.
Q.Will jumpstarting damage my car's electronics?
Not with a proper lithium pack. The old risk with jump leads and a running donor car was voltage spikes — modern lithium packs are regulated and safe on any car including hybrids.
Q.How long does a car jumpstart take?
From arrival, most jobs are done in 15–20 minutes including a full electrical health check. If we're fitting a new battery we're usually finished inside 40 minutes.
Q.What is a realistic ETA for Boldmere?
Typically 45–60 minutes in normal traffic, quicker off-peak, longer if we are mid-job when you call. You get an honest figure on the phone.
Q.Is there a fee for a faster response?
No priority surcharge. Emergency and roadside jobs are prioritised by risk, not by payment.
